If you enjoyed Oblivion, and can deal with the downgrade in combat systems, Morrowind will entertain you.
A real gem of a series was designed by Pirahna Bytes and JoWood. Gothic 1 & 2, then you can play 3 for completion of the story. Gothic 1 & 2 feature one of the best combat systems I have played. The story is full and interesting and the world is large and doesn't limit you with Fable Fences or loading screens.

I was going to write ME1, ME2, III, IV and all the fallout games, you have already played all the rpgs i have.
So i'm not very helpfull aren't I?

It's a beautiful day when the first post for a recommendation thread contains Planescape. I think my work here is nearing finished.Danceofmasks said:

It's about as awesome as you think it would be.
That was my planMisterShine said:
There have been hundreds of awesome rpgs, I just reckon it's more expedient to play the best and work your way down.
Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, by far one of the best FPS RPGs ever made, there are so many ways to play it and when you have completed it once or twice play as a Malkavian and get to see some of the funniest dialogue ever written.
You win this round.
And of course
Baldur's Gate 2
Planescape Torment
Fantastic games, both of them, there's also
Icewind Dale
Neverwinter Nights
Vampire the Masquerade: Redemption
Gothic
Morrowind
All pretty decent games themselves, or if you are in the mood for something a little out of the ordinary
Recettear An Item Shop's Tale
An RPG where you play the item shop owner getting Loot, weapons and healing items in stock and trying to fleece the poor adventurers, definatly worth a look at least.

ThankyouThankyouThankyouThankyouThankyou
I had no idea that thisa was done I am so putting this on right now!
anachronox
and all the others that probably have been mentioned
but the often mentioned
Planescape Torment
is THE rpg, the must play - now!
you cannot put into words how awesome it is
oh, and vampire, of course. and baldur's gate (bg 2, if you don't have time for both. also, imho it's better than part 1, and storywise it doesn't really rely on it, so just go buy all the games mentioned above by all the people round here, and have some epic fun ^^ )

Love that game .. however, I refrained from mentioning it due in part to it being very tricky to run on a new PC, fanpatch (I like the 5.04AT patch) being a requirement to even run it without game breaking crashes, and widescreen not natively supported (source engine can be hacked, though).moretimethansense said:
Of course, to a lesser extent those issues apply to other older games as well (especially a resolution hack for planescape: torment) ... but damn it took a lot of work to get this game going on win7-x64.
I know what you mean, I forget exactly what but you have to editDanceofmasks said:
a read only file to stop this god awful glitch on Torment (on vista at least) if you don't the characters tend to walk backwards or sidewards, annoying as hell, worth the effort though.
If the game is available on Good Old Games (gog.com) -- Which Planescape: Torment is -- is they work on getting the games working on newer systems. Takes some of the headache out of it.Danceofmasks said:
You have to play:
Baldur's Gate 2 - IMO the best game ever made.
Planescape: Torment - actually, the only true roleplaying experience in video games.
Deus Ex
For consideration:
Baldur's Gate - I love it almost as much as BG2, but people are often discouraged because of archaic engine and lack of NPC interaction. Of course you can change it with mods.
Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines - after years of patching it's an amazing game, but turns into terrible H&S at the end.
Stay away from:
basic NWN campaign.
